 +Above links tell you how to open an RDS session. But if you are done, you can either close the RDP program or use the logout functionality inside the graphical interface. The first method retains your RDS session and the next time you try to connect, you are directed to this still existing session. This means that you can start programs that will continue to run even if you are not connected to the session, and that returning to the session you can pickup where your left off. Using the graphical windows logout function closes the session, thus providing you with a clean new session the next time you connect RDS.
